The year in books 2014

27/02/2014

I am slipping…

linking up with Laura The year in books 2014

I have achieved lot during these grey February days,

I have added to my continuing wip’s even finishing some… I know impressive or what?

I have blogged, I have met Kirstie and been published.

BUT and that is a big BUT

 I only just scraped the book a month challenge this month.

I had to force myself to read my chosen book.

When you force yourself to read two things can happen.

Either..

1. You fall into the story and land in a magical place that becomes a haven from the outside world and its many distractions.

or….

2. You plough through a novel that becomes a chore to read. The contents and details of which fail to reach the inner workings and wheels of your imagination. More exciting projects beckon.

I have to admit I read Dodie Smiths ‘I capture the castle’ and fell into trap number 2.

I am so sorry, I know so many of you revere this book, perhaps in the way that I adore Louisa M Alcotts ‘Little Women’?  I could happily read it again and again, delighting in the childhood memories it brings back?

So what to read in March
I don’t Know?

Help needed Please

 I may return to Donna Tart and ‘the Gold finch?

I may just keep it simple this month

Any suggestions gratefully received.

I'd so appreciate you sharing this post!
